New Delhi, July 24 (IBNS): The Delhi Police on Sunday arrested Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Amanatullah Khan on charges of threatening a woman with rape and murder.
Following his arrest, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal blamed Prime Minister Narendra Modi and posted: "Just in - Modi ji arrests one more AAP MLA."
The woman has alleged that Khan had directed a young man to threaten her with rape.
